Online video site Veoh has launched a new pluin for Firefox 3 and Internet Explorer 7 that shows relevant video search results any time you conduct a search on Google, Yaho!, YouTUbe, Live.com, Ask.com, or AOL.

A federal court in California has ruled that Veoh did not violate the copyright of a pornography company by automatically transcoding video uploaded by a user. Let's back up a second here.

Now that VeohTV beta's been out for a few days, we've had a chance to take it for a spin (thanks to our friends at NewTeeVee).

You can search multiple sites, including YouTube and Daily Motion for videos of your choice. And there are pre-configured channels for tuning into to ...
